Release thread is not primarily intended to get support. It’s intended to discuss new features. For example, I saw in the release post that part of the development was supported by NASA. So I wanted to ask, is NASA using Julia? I’m not going to make a new post for that, but it’s a small enough question for a release thread. I also see plenty of the type of responses I was hoping for, including a lot of appreciation. Support questions can always easily be split into new topics anyway.
